Hello, I need help writing a query for fuzzy numeric search. my documents have 4 numeric fields. I have 4 numbers one for each field, and I need to find documents where all 4 fields are the closest to those 4 numbers. So, this is exactly what fuzzy numeric search does, but I don't understand how to combine those 4 fields into one query. Could someone help me out? Any help is appreciated. thanks in advance Eugene -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "elasticsearch" group.

Hello again, I was trying to find the answer on my own, and the only solution I could find is boolean query using "must": QueryBuilders.boolQuery() .must(QueryBuilders.fuzzyQuery("numberA", "9.567").minSimilarity(1f)) .must(QueryBuilders.fuzzyQuery("numberB", "15.822").minSimilarity(1f)) etc... Am I on the right direction, or I should use something else?
